The Festival de Musique Émergente (FME) returns to Rouyn-Noranda in Quebec's Abitibi-Témiscamingue region this Labour Day weekend. From August 30 until September 2, many boundary-pushing artists across all genres will head to the city for a weekend of intimate performances.

Topping this year's lineup is the return of Karkwatson, the collaboration between members of Patrick Watson's band and Karkwa, for their first performance in over 10 years. The project will perform twice over the course of the festival.
